GameStop customer service responds to slightly higher price for Zelda: Wind Waker HD Limited Edition
Nintendo’s announcement for The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD Limited Edition listed a MSRP of $54.99. However, GameStop ended up charging consumers $59.99.
Some fans were curious about the discrepancy, and therefore decided to write in to the retailer’s customer service center for answers. GameStop did respond, and noted that its pricing is “based on many factors including current demand, features and availability.” While it’s true that MSRP usually indicates pricing, the message indicated that this isn’t always so.
The message in full states:
Game Freak’s Junichi Masuda will be appearing on an upcoming episode of Pokemon Smash. On September 15, he’ll be around to showcase Mega Evolutions in an Pokemon X/Y “Institute Special”. There’s a good chance that we’ll be hearing about some of the things Masuda intends to cover before then through CoroCoro leaks.
Miiverse is coming to the 3DS eventually. We’ve also heard speculation about Nintendo Network IDs being implemented on the handheld. Apparently, both items are coming in October – after Pokemon X/Y have launched.
Emily Rogers, who tends to be in the know when it comes to Nintendo rumors, shared the nugget on Twitter a short while ago:
For the record, I've heard rumblings that 3DS Miiverse/NNID is indeed coming end of October AFTER Pokemon X & Y are released.

Batman: Arkham Origins will offer players a number of different skins. These will be accessible after completing the campaign, creative director Eric Holmes has confirmed.
Holmes wrote on Twitter:
@Nardz7 you can use any SP skin once you've finished the campaign. Why? Inmersion. Some cines are pre-rendered and only show the AO model.
